• Synonyms: 4-Hydroxy-2,6-dimethoxy-benzaldehyde
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3,5-Dimethoxy-4-formylphenol is a synthetic compound that has been used as an intermediate for the synthesis of various types of amide and oligosaccharide. It also has a mycological effect on fungi and is used in the production of organic solvents. 3,5-Dimethoxy-4-formylphenol can be produced by demethylation of anilines with sodium hypochlorite or potassium carbonate in methanol. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits good organoleptic properties. This compound can be synthesized from fungal biomass, which is obtained by solid phase synthesis or preparative chromatography. The linker between the phenolic group and the methyl group is labile to hydrolysis and must be protected during storage.
